Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Advanced materials are created based on cutting-edge research. New alloying and microstructural design, supported by the development of new production and processing technologies, make it possible to obtain materials with unique properties. Today, we can observe how a wide range of conventional materials with enhanced properties or new materials have firmly entered our lives: high-strength steels and alloys, heat-resistant materials and superalloys, composites, ODS alloys, high-entropy alloys, metallic glasses, single crystals, ultra-fine grained and nanomaterials, smart materials, shape-memory alloys, etc. The aim of this Special Issue is to present the latest results on the theoretical and experimental investigations of structure–property relationships of different advanced materials.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Metals is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
